| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: Serialize PCM mmap with buffer reallocation to fix page UAF
snd_pcm_hw_params() and snd_pcm_hw_free() guard buffer reallocation
with an mmap_count check performed under the PCM stream lock, but the
lock is released long before the buffer is actually freed:
snd_pcm_sync_stop(), constraint refinement and do_free_pages() all
happen in between. snd_pcm_mmap_data(), on the other hand, takes no
lock at all: it validates against the old buffer's state and
dma_bytes, remaps its pages into the VMA, and only then increments
mmap_count.
A concurrent mmap() can therefore slip in between the check and the
free. remap_pfn_range() installs writable PTEs for the old buffer's
pages without taking page references, and the subsequent
do_free_pages() returns those pages to the page allocator while the
VMA still maps them. This leaves a stale, writable mapping of freed
pages: a page-level use-after-free that can be leveraged for local
privilege escalation.
Make snd_pcm_mmap_data() participate in the buffer-access scheme
introduced for hw_params/hw_free: acquire runtime->buffer_accessing
before validating and remapping, and release it afterwards. Buffer
reallocation already fails with -EBUSY while accessors are active,
and the mmap side now fails with -EBUSY while a reallocation is in
progress, so the validate/remap sequence and the check/free sequence
can no longer interleave.
A reproducer that turns this race into a stale writable mapping of
the freed DMA buffer pages is available on request. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix listener task lifetime on netdev events
The listener thread exits when its listening socket is shutdown. The
netdevice notifier shuts down the socket before calling kthread_stop(), so
the task_struct can be freed before kthread_stop() gets its reference.
Create the listener in a stopped state and hold an extra task_struct
reference until kthread_stop_put() completes. Also stop and release
listeners before freeing their interface records during TCP teardown. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exit: hold a reference to thread_pid across proc_flush_pid
Commit 0a36bad01731 ("release_task: kill the no longer needed
get/put_pid(thread_pid)") removed the reference around proc_flush_pid().
It assumed that free_pids(post.pids) at the end of release_task() would
keep thread_pid alive until then.
That assumption is wrong. __change_pid() only records a detached PID in
post.pids when pid_has_task() is false for every PIDTYPE. If another task
still uses the exiting task's PID as its process group or session ID,
__unhash_process() removes the exiting task's PIDTYPE_PID link but leaves
the PID out of post.pids. release_task() therefore holds no reference to
it after dropping tasklist_lock.
The other task can then remove the remaining PIDTYPE links. Its
free_pids() call schedules delayed_put_pid(), and the RCU callback can free
the PID before the first release_task() reaches proc_flush_pid().
An unprivileged reproducer races wait4(-1) against setsid() to trigger this
ordering. Three of three fresh v7.2 KASAN boots reported:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in
proc_invalidate_siblings_dcache+0x3e2/0x3f0

KASAN identified a 144-byte object from the pid cache and located the bad
read 80 bytes into the freed object, matching pid->inodes. With an
explicit reference, three of three fresh boots completed without a KASAN
report. The concurrent RCU callback dropped its reference while
proc_flush_pid() was protected, and the balancing put_pid() performed the
final free afterward.
Take a reference before __unhash_process() clears p->thread_pid and release
it after proc_flush_pid() completes.
A tested source reproducer is available privately on request. No
controlled read or write, information leak, or privilege escalation is
claimed. The mainline patch applies directly to v6.19.y and newer;
v6.16.y through v6.18.y need a context-adjusted backport. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/user_events: Don't destroy fields when event removal fails
destroy_user_event() destroys the event's fields before attempting to
remove the trace event call. If user_event_set_call_visible() fails,
e.g. because the event is still enabled and trace_remove_event_call()
returns -EBUSY, the event is left registered with an irreversibly
destroyed field list. Any subsequent interaction with the event then
operates on an empty field list while it is still fully visible in
tracefs.
Move the field destruction after the call removal, and splice the
field list back onto the event when the removal fails so the event
remains in a consistent state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost: invalidate vring access on IOTLB transitions
When VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM changes, cached vring pointers and IOTLB
metadata are interpreted in a different address space. Keeping them
across the transition can leave stale ring mappings in use.
Clearing d->iotlb before taking the VQ locks also lets a worker observe
a transient NULL d->iotlb and fall back to d->umem while translating a
descriptor.
Add a common vhost_clear_device_iotlb() helper for vhost-net and
vhost-vsock. Take all VQ mutexes in index order before dropping the
device-wide IOTLB, invalidate each VQ's cached ring access and metadata,
clear pending IOTLB messages, and free the old table after the handoff.
This serializes the transition with workers and prevents mixed address
space mappings.
On the first direct-to-IOTLB transition, invalidate the cached vring
addresses. When an existing device IOTLB is replaced, preserve the
GIOVA ring addresses and reset only the metadata cache. After clearing
ACCESS_PLATFORM, userspace must configure the vring addresses for the
new address mode.
vhost_vq_invalidate_access() clears desc, avail, and used together.
Treat the VQ as invalidated only when all three are NULL, since a single
GIOVA address may legitimately be zero. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Don't dereference trace_event_file in deferred trigger free
The enable_event trigger defers trace_event_put_ref() to the
trigger free kthread, but the trace_event_file can already be freed
when the instance is removed.
Keep the trace_event_call directly in enable_trigger_data so the
deferred free does not access the freed trace_event_file. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Take trace_array reference when opening a tracer options file
When a tracer option file is opened, it is passed a descriptor that points
to an element on the trace_array's topts array. This element has
information to find the trace array and other information. It uses this
element to take a reference of the trace_array so that the trace_array
does not get removed while this file is opened.
Unfortunately, there's a race condition where the element itself could be
freed by the removal of the instance the trace_array represents causing a
use-after-free as this element that is used to find the trace_array to
increment its reference counter is also freed when the instance is
removed.
To solve this, add a trace_array_tracer_options_get() helper function that
will take the address of the element that is passed to the open function
by the inode->i_private pointer and search all the trace_arrays under a
lock to find the one that the element's address is in the range of the
trace_arrays topts array elements. When a match happens, that trace_array's
reference would be increased.
Note, there's a race where if an admin was deleting and creating trace
instances at the same time and the memory of the old trace_array's array
matched the memory of the new trace_array that it could in theory open the
option from the wrong trace array. But we do not care because it would be
stupid to perform that kind of action. As long as the only thing that can
happen is that the option from the wrong trace array is used and doesn't
crash the kernel it will only make the user confused. But if they are
doing something stupid like this, they are already confused, so no harm
done. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Set the trace clock before registering the histogram trigger
hist_register_trigger() puts the trigger on the global named_triggers
list in cmd_ops->init(), and only then sets the trace clock:
if (data->cmd_ops->init) {
ret = data->cmd_ops->init(data);
if (ret < 0)
goto out;
}
if (hist_data->enable_timestamps) {
ret = tracing_set_clock(file->tr, hist_data->attrs->clock);
if (ret) {
hist_err(tr, HIST_ERR_SET_CLOCK_FAIL, errpos(clock));
goto out;
}
The clock string is not checked anywhere before that call, so a named
trigger using common_timestamp with an unknown clock fails after it has
already become findable. event_hist_trigger_parse() then frees it
without taking it off the list, and the next lookup by name reads the
freed object:
~# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch
~# echo 'hist:name=foo:keys=common_pid:ts=common_timestamp:clock=bogus' > trigger
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
~# echo 'hist:name=foo:keys=common_pid' > trigger

Set the clock before the trigger is registered, so that nothing which
can fail runs after it is published, the way commit 6f86bdeab633
("tracing: Fix bad hist from corrupting named_triggers list") moved the
registration below the rest of the setup.
tracing_set_filter_buffering() is reference counted, so the init failure
path has to drop the reference that the clock block now takes first. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ieee802154: cc2520: fix FIFOP work use-after-free
The FIFOP interrupt handler queues cc2520_fifop_irqwork. On removal,
cc2520_remove() only flushes the work. The devm-managed FIFOP IRQ
remains active until after ->remove() returns and can queue the work
again after that flush, allowing it to run after the private data is
released.
Disable the work with disable_work_sync() instead of flushing it, so
the handler can no longer queue it once removal begins. Destroy the
buffer mutex last, since the worker and the stop callback invoked
through ieee802154_unregister_hw() both take it.
Found by an in-house static analysis tool. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: disable DIM work before freeing q_vectors
idpf never drains the Tx/Rx DIM works before freeing the memory they
live in. tx_dim and rx_dim are embedded in struct idpf_q_vector, they
are queued from the NAPI poll via net_dim(), and idpf_vport_intr_rel()
ends with kfree(rsrc->q_vectors). Nothing in the driver cancels them.
idpf_tx_dim_work() and idpf_rx_dim_work() then run on freed memory:
idpf_vport_intr_write_itr() writes the ITR register through
q_vector->intr_reg.tx_itr / rx_itr, void __iomem pointers loaded out of
the freed q_vector. No configuration is needed to get there --
IDPF_ITR_IS_DYNAMIC() is defined as (itr_mode) and idpf_vport_alloc()
initialises both modes to IDPF_ITR_DYNAMIC.
Draining after idpf_vport_intr_napi_dis_all() is not enough on its own.
idpf_net_dim() is called from inside the
"if (napi_complete_done(napi, work_done))" branch of the poll, and
napi_complete_done() has already cleared NAPIF_STATE_SCHED by then.
napi_disable_locked() waits only while (val & (NAPIF_STATE_SCHED |
NAPIF_STATE_NPSVC)), so napi_disable() can return while the poll tail is
still queueing the work, and a plain cancel_work_sync() would be
re-armed behind the drain.
Use disable_work_sync(): schedule_work() on a work with a non-zero
disable count is dropped by clear_pending_if_disabled() before
__queue_work() is reached.
Move idpf_init_dim() to idpf_vport_intr_alloc() so the works are
initialised on every path that can reach the drain -- the three
"goto intr_deinit" sites between idpf_vport_intr_init() and
idpf_vport_intr_ena() get there without the enable side having run.
Nothing re-enables them: rsrc->q_vectors is freed on every exit from
idpf_vport_open() and on every idpf_vport_stop(), so the count dies with
the object.
It is a race, not a deterministic failure -- net_dim() only schedules
once DIM_NEVENTS events have accumulated and the profile index changes.
A KASAN ifup/ifdown loop under load is the way to see it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cachefiles: Fix potential UAF/KASAN warning
Currently, trace_cachefiles_coherency() is being passed a pointer to a
__be64 lain over the coherency data in struct cachefiles_xattr so that it
can display the first 8 bytes. However, the data is of variable length and
could even be 0 bytes. This could lead to a UAF or KASAN warning.
Fix this by making sure the buffer has room for at least 8 bytes and that
those 8 bytes are pre-cleared.
Further, those bytes are not 8-byte aligned, so fix the tracepoint to
extract the data as four 2-byte words (they are 2-byte aligned) and
reassemble the __be64. The compiler will convert this into a single 8-byte
load where the CPU supports it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: flush pending RCU callbacks on module unload
Call rcu_barrier() in module exit to wait for outstanding call_rcu() callbacks
before freeing module text, preventing late callback execution in freed memory.

wifi: iwlwifi: mld: purge async notifications upon nic error
This fixes a kernel panic in reconfig failure:
1. we have a BSS connection
2. we have a NAN connection
3. FW error occurs
4. reconfig restores the BSS connection
5. however, restoring the NAN connection fails due to a FW error.
6. erroneously, ieee80211_handle_reconfig_failure is called and marks all
interfaces as not-in-driver (will be fixed in a different patch).
7. mac80211 frees the links of the BSS connection but doesn't tell the
driver about that, as it thinks that this vif is not in the driver.
8. in ieee80211_stop_device, *ALL* wiphy works are getting flushed
(erroneously?)
9. Therefore, async_handlers_wk is being executed, processing the
statistics notification that was received after we restored the BSS
connection.
10. the notification handler dereferences fw_id_to_bss_conf[id], which is
now a dangling pointer, as mac80211 already freed this link in (7).
11. On the first access to one of the links fields, we panic.
While this can and should be fixed by removing the call to
ieee80211_handle_reconfig_failure in (6), it is also not a good idea to
carry and maybe handle notifications from a dead FW.
We do purge the notifications when we stop the FW, but in reconfig
failure we stop the FW too late, after the notifications are processed.
In addition, async_handlers_wk can always be scheduled before the
reconfig work.
Purge the notifications immediately when transport notifies about a nic
error. |

iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Manage teardown with devm
arm_smmu_device_remove() manually frees the IOPF queue, destroys the
vmid_map and disables the device, while the IRQs and queues are devm
managed. devm unwinds only after remove() returns, so the cleanup runs
in the wrong order. The IOPF queue is freed before the event-queue IRQ
whose handler uses it.
Manage all of it with devm so the unwind order is correct. Free the IOPF
queue and vmid_map via devm actions, and disable the device from one
registered after arm_smmu_device_reset().
This is also a prerequisite for fixing a Tegra241 CMDQV CMD_SYNC
use-after-free in the subsequent patch. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: Zero rpc_gss_wire_cred at svcauth_gss_decode_credbody() entry
svcauth_gss_decode_credbody() writes the caller's
rpc_gss_wire_cred field by field and assigns gc_ctx.len only on
the success tail. The caller storage is svcdata->clcred, which
lives in the per-svc_rqst gss_svc_data and is reused across
requests. Early decode failures leave partially decoded state
mixed with residue from the prior request.
The trailing body_len tightness check is the sharpest case:
xdr_stream_decode_opaque_inline() has already written gc_ctx.data
with a borrowed inline pointer into the current request's XDR
pages, but gc_ctx.len retains its prior value. Once the request
pages are released the pooled clcred carries a dangling pointer
paired with a stale length.
Zero the caller's rpc_gss_wire_cred at function entry so that
every early-return path leaves a deterministic all-zero cred.
On the trailing tightness-check path, gc_ctx.len is now zero
instead of stale, which neuters length-driven consumers such as
gss_svc_searchbyctx() that would otherwise walk the dangling
data pointer. |

ACPI: bus: Introduce acpi_bus_get_primary_device()
The function used for obtaining the first "physical" device for which
the given ACPI one is the ACPI companion, acpi_get_first_physical_node(),
may return a stale device pointer (mostly in theory) because
acpi_unbind_one() may run as a whole after dropping the ACPI device's
physical_node_lock in acpi_get_first_physical_node() and before it
returns. The last reference to the "physical" device may be dropped
then before the pointer to it is returned to the caller.
If that happens and the acpi_get_first_physical_node() caller invokes
get_device() on the pointer obtained from it, which is done by the
majority of its callers, a use-after-free will occur.
To prepare for addressing this problem, introduce a new function for
getting the first "physical" device associated with the given ACPI one
(the "primary physical device") that will also reference count the
device in question before returning a pointer to it.
Make that new function and acpi_get_first_physical_node() share the
physical node list lookup code.
No intentional functional impact. |

HID: hidpp: fix potential UAF in hidpp_connect_event()
If input_register_device() fails, we call input_free_device(), but keep
stale pointer to the old device in hidpp->input, which could potentially
lead to UAF. Fix that by resetting it to NULL before returning from
hidpp_connect_event(). |
